About Me

I'm inspired by my daughter, Chelsea, who has been blogging about her fashion (and life) journeys for the last six months.
Fashion should be fun, it should make you feel good about yourself, it should lift your spirits. Passing the 50 year mark doesn't automatically disqualify you from feeling cute, or sexy, or stylish or FABULOUS! My goal is to blog about finding the best look I can each day, that makes me feel my best. I'm not talking about the over-done matchy matchy look, but a casual chic that takes me anywhere.
I grew up in Texas but have moved around the country - from Texas to California to Washington, DC and now the Midwest. I love shopping for fashion, especially my favorite charitable resale shop - The Scholar Shop - in St Louis, MO. I feel better when I take care with what I'm wearing, whether it's a casual day or special event. Like the man said, "Clothes make the (wo)man!"

Teaser - New Shoes

While we were in Las Vegas my husband took me to Jimmy Choo at the Palazzo Shops and bought me my first pair of Jimmy Choo shoes! I am SO excited about these shoes. The pair I bought are so brand new they aren't even on their website yet, but here's the closest I can find to them. Mine are a tobacco brown suede that is just amazing.

The teaser is that we had them shipped home, so I won't get the actual shoes for a few days, but I will try to keep it together until they arrive.

BTW, we had a blast on vacation - but it was SO hot that sitting by the pool at 5:00 pm was still scorching hot. We spent a LOT of time in the air conditioned gym and spa - which was just lovely.
